Abstract
Introduction
Family planning methods classified into methods specialized for male and the other method specialized for females. Females methods includes oral contraceptive pills, implants, injectables, patches, vaginal rings, Intra uterine devices, female condoms, female sterilization, lactational amenorrhea methods, withdrawal and fertility awareness based methods. These methods have different mechanisms of action and effectiveness in preventing unintended pregnancy. (Booskey, 2018)
Nearly half of all pregnancies in the United States are unintended, and unplanned pregnancies are linked to poor health outcomes for women and their children. One strategy to reduce unintended pregnancy and promote better outcomes for women and children is to increase the use of effective contraceptive methods among women seeking to avoid pregnancy. Child Trends‘ examination of Title X clinics in Delaware suggests that increased use of highly effective contraception can reduce unintended pregnancy.( Kirby, 2018)
Study conducted on randomly selected sample of 2304 males aged 15-49 years from 4 governorates in Lower Egypt to assess their condom use and knowledge and attitudes towards condom use. Condoms were considered an effective method of contraception and prevention of transmission of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) by 60.5% and 60.0% respectively. Only 23.9% had ever used condoms, mainly for contraception, but 26.8% would consider using them in the future. A quarter reported knowing how to use condoms properly. Obstacles to condom use included perceived lack of need (75.7%), rejection by wife (57.6%) and hazards of condoms (31.9%). The majority knew about HIV/AIDS (90.8%) but a few felt at risk of STIs (11.2%) or HIV infection (10.3%).( Ismael,2020)
